What is ObiTalk and how does it work?

Asked 4 months ago
ObiTalk is a voice over internet protocol (VoIP) service provided by Obihai Technology, Inc., which allows users to make voice calls using their internet connection instead of traditional telephone lines. The service is particularly known for its flexibility and affordability, enabling users to connect their existing telephones to the internet. This is achieved through the use of specialized devices called Obi devices, which connect standard telephones to the VoIP network. The core of how ObiTalk works involves using an Obi device, which serves as the bridge between the user's phone and the internet. After setting up the device, users can register for a free ObiTalk account, which allows them to configure and manage their calling options through an online portal. This setup enables users to link other VoIP services to their account, providing them with various calling plans and options, including free calls to other ObiTalk users. Calls made using ObiTalk can be routed over the internet, dramatically lowering the cost of domestic and international calls compared to traditional phone services. The quality of the calls is generally high, provided there is a stable internet connection. Additionally, users can benefit from features such as voicemail, call forwarding, and call blocking. ObiTalk also offers compatibility with several popular VoIP services, allowing users to choose the best options that suit their needs.
